Looking to extend on what has been a real purple patch in midweek, Tottenham will make the trip to Southampton on Tuesday afternoon in what could be a lively affair.

Starting with the hosts, managing to find what was a much-needed boost over the weekend, Southampton will be desperate to keep up that momentum here. In their 18 Premier League matchups so far this season, they have recorded four wins, eight draws and six defeats, scoring 19 and conceding 28 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 20, they open the midweek fixtures sat 14th in the table and now holding a commanding nine-point buffer over the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 3-2 win away at West Ham, that result ended Southampton’s six-match Premier League winless run. Likewise, it should be noted, along with each of their last three straight matchups, Tuesday’s hosts have seen six of their last seven contests finish with over 2.5 goals.

As for the visitors, enjoying what has been a real domestic purple patch, Tottenham will be looking to lay down another marker here. In their 16 Premier League matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, two draws and five defeats, scoring 21 and conceding 19 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 29, the Lilywhites open the midweek fixtures sat fifth in the table and still holding a trio of games in hand over fourth-place Arsenal. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 3-0 romp against Crystal Palace on Boxing Day, Tottenham are unbeaten in each of their seven domestic contests since Antonio Conte took charge. Likewise, it should be noted, with each of their last five matchups across all formats finishing with over 2.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
